Over 150 people gathered at the Gazebo in front of Milton Town Hall for a 9/11 observance.

“The Tenth Anniversary Remembrance of the Events of September 11, 2001,” was organized by the Milton Interfaith Clergy Association.

“We got together and we said ‘are we going to do something? Is it meaningful to do something? Is it appropriate? and everyone said, ‘Absolutely, it is,’” said Rabbi Alfred Benjamin who serves as the groups president.

The event featured readings of the “Golden Rule” by the clergy assembled from varying religions including Taoism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism.

There was also a candlelight vigil and the tolling of bells from both the First Congregational Church and First Parish Unitarian Universalist Church in memory of those killed on 9/11.

“This a town where people care about one another and what it means to be sharing these communal moments of sadness,” said Benjamin.
